Atasha's POV.
"Cry now, Atasha." Malumanay na saad sa'kin ni Wendy ng makalabas kami sa mansion ng lolo ni Shevio. Ang akala kong luha na hindi na tutulo pa'y paunti unti na namang lumalaglag.
It hurts. S-She has a fiancé...a-ako? Paano ako? Ano nga ba ako sa kan'ya?
"S-She has a f-fiancé...I-I didn't k-know.." I whispered at yumakap na rin dito.
"Aish. This is stressing me out. I don't know that she's that evil. She is cheating behind her Fiancé's back." Wendy said na ikinatulo lalo ng luha ko.
So, all this time, a-ano pala ako sa kan'ya?
"Shh, everything will be fine. Gusto mo bang sa bahay ko muna kita patirahin? M-May bahay na ako, Atasha. You can stay there." Mahinahong saad nito na ikinailing iling ko.
I want to fix this. I just want to know why did she used me? Is it because I look like that Taliya girl? I really look like her. Ng makita ko ito kanina, mata lamang at hulma ng ilong ang pinagkaiba naming dalawa.
At hindi naman makakailang mas maganda ito. Sobrang ganda. Ano...Ano nga ba ako? S-Substitute ni Taliya? Naging ako nga ba? Minahal nga ba talaga n'ya ako o...
...kada makikita n'ya ako'y ang mukha ng babaeng 'yon ang pumapasok sa utak n'ya? Minahal nga ba n'ya sa kung sino ako o..
..minahal n'ya lang ako dahil mahal n'ya ang babaeng 'yon?
Naguguluhan ako. Sobra akong naguguluhan. Gusto kong intindihin na hindi n'ya 'yon sinasadya, na baka pagkakamali lang 'yon. Na baka...baka may ibang dahilan.
Ngunit, kahit saang anggulo ko tingnan, S-She used me.
"No...I want to f-fix this f-first." Bulong ko na ikinatigil n'ya sa pagaalo sa'kin.
Hinarap nito ako sa kan'ya and saw her crying aswell.
"Don't..." She whispered and wiped her tears.
"Don't hurt yourself too much. D-Don't..." She added and hugged me again.
"I know we're not that close, but, please..Don't hurt yourself anymore. It hurts seeing you in that state. Nagmahal ka lang naman, at...At hindi mo alam na gan'yan ang isusukli n'ya sa'yo. So, please. Don't fix it anymore, let your heart heal. I will help you..so please.." She whispered while hugging me.
I can feel the tears started dropping again. Kailan ba mauubos ang luha sa'king mata dahil sa kakaiyak.
I thought she loves me aswell..'yun pala ay dahil lang sa kamukha ko ang Fiancé n'ya.
Si Wendy ang kumalas sa pagyayakapan naming dalawa at pinagkatitigan ang mata ko. She wiped my tears away and smiled at me.
"Hindi bagay sa'yo ang umiiyak. Ang ganda mo na nga, ang pogi pa. So please, stop crying." She said at hinila ang kamay ko papunta sa sasakyan n'ya.
Bago pa man kami makaalis ni Wendy ay biglang lumabas sa malaking gate si na Shevio at and Taliya. It breaks my heart into pieces. Shattering my soul as I saw her looking at that girl with full of admiration on her eyes.
I saw Taliya waved at me habang naglalakad silang dalawa, but, that person didn't even dare to take a glimpse.
It breaks my heart into pieces, seeing her so happy with that woman. Seeing how happy she is made me smiled bitterly.
Is there some point that I made you that happy?
"Let's go to my unit, Love love? I'll show you something." Parang batang saad ni Hash kay Taliya. I saw how Taliya nod at her that made her smile.
Ansakit sa mata.
"Let's go to my house, Atasha. You need to res-"
"Wendy?! Where are you?! I need you right now, come here, asap!" I heard a man shouted na ikinapitlag ni Wendy. Tumingin ito sa'kin bago ako niyakap muli bago bumulong.
"I will go to your unit after my work." She whispered at walang kalakas lakas na tumango ako rito para sang ayunan s'ya.
Ng makaalis ito ay napatingin naman ako muli kay Shevio at Taliya na nanghaharutan. I smiled bitterly.
Why can't you do that thing to me when we're in public? Is it because you're embarassed when you're with me because I am poor...
...or maybe bacause in the first place, I am just a substitute?
Minahal mo ba talaga ako? Paulit ulit na tanong ng isip ko. Minahal mo nga ba talaga ako? Kahit kaunti?
"Oh, did you wait for me, Monterial? Well, that's good. Pakihatid nga kami ng Lovey ko sa condo. She will move in with me. I need my motivation to be there beside me, lalo na't malapit na kaming ikasal." Shevio said while looking at Taliya na para bang kapag kumarap s'ya ay mawawala 'to sa kan'ya.
She's holding her arms while Taliya is holding her waist. I will not lie, they really look good together. Walang wala ako.
"Did you hear me, Monterial?" She asked na ikinatango tango ko dahil alam kong lalabas na naman ang luhang nakaikom sa mata ko. She just smiled, a fake smile. Bago muli tingnan ang kan'yang Fiancé.
"Don't be too harsh on your Assistant, Shio. Look at her, her eyes, isn't it beautiful?" Taliya said na ikinayuko ko. Your eyes is prettier than me.
"No. Walang wala pa sa kalingkingan ng mata ng Fiancé ko. Her eyes is the ugliest eyes I've ever seen. It's not that unique, unlike yours. That's why I fell inlove to you eh." She respond while looking at her, smiling.
I saw Taliya blushing. Shevio's looking at her as if Taliya is the most beautiful view she had ever seen.
How I wish that there is a time that you looked at me like how you look at her. Because everytime I'll recall every memories we had, ako na lang palagi ang tumitingin sa'yo ng gan'yan.
Bakit parang sobrang bilis mong nagbago? Sa sobrang bilis, you didn't even prepare me at mas lalo mo lang akong pinaibig sa'yo.
You did became mine, for two days. How fast.
How I wish I knew how 'till when your love will last.
